Ingredients:


-----salad makings-----

1 package cheese tortellini

1 can artichoke hearts

1 medium carrot thinly sliced

1 medium broccoli florets -- (or asparagus) red -- sliced into strips

3 medium green onions -- sliced thinly

1 Cup parmesan cheese

-----dressing-----

1 clove garlic

1 teaspoon salt and pepper

1 teaspoon mustard

1/3 cup balsamic vinegar

2/3 cup olive oil

1 bunch basil
 

Preparation / Directions:


Cook the tortellini according to package directions. Drain and rinse the artichoke hearts and cut them into quarters. Add the remaining salad makings (except the parmesan) and toss with the dressing. Give it a generous sprinkling of parmesan and refrigerate. You might want to be a little easy on the salt in the dressing because of the parmesan and the cheese in the tortellini.
